The Decorative Molding Material—it makes a difference

The decorative molding on this page are made from high density polyurethane. While wood is thought of as a more traditional material for molding,
the use of the polyurethane has been growing. It solves many of the problems that are seen with the wood material due to the fact that it
is not affected by the climate changes that are seen in the environment—such as temperature fluctuations and humidity.

Such weather changes usually cause the wood molding to shrink, swell, warp, and eventually crack. If you live in a place where moisture may become an issue, you
might get some unwelcomed visits from bugs and termites. Polyurethane is also a great molding to use for renovating basements due to the moisture
that is usually found there.

The molding comes pre-primed so you will save time and money in just having to paint them whatever color you like or go whatever treatment that
you like on them and install them. Installing is easy due to the low weight of the molding and it does not strain the walls. It is a great
material for anyone who does not like the look of grain—it is a perfect way to add smooth details and smooth transitions to the room decor.
